DNS over Discord
Ever wanted to make DNS requests from the comfort of your Discord server? Well now you can, thanks to the @1.1.1.1 bot.
To start using the DNS over Discord bot, invite it to your Discord server using this link: https://cfl.re/3nM6VfQ
dig command
Once the bot is in your server, type /dig to begin using the bot's main command -- performing DNS lookups.
This will provide a native interface within Discord that allows you to specify the domain to lookup, an optional DNS record type and an optional flag for a short result.
Due to limitations in Discord, the /dig command can only offer 10 different DNS record types, and will default to 'A' records if none is specified.
Supported record types
- A
- AAAA
- CAA
- CERT
- CNAME
- MX
- NS
- SPF
- SRV
- TXT
For all DNS record types, use the /multi-dig command.
Examples
/dig domain: cloudflare.com
/dig domain: cloudflare.com type: AAAA short: True
multi-dig command
Want to lookup multiple DNS record types at once, or record types not available in /dig?
The /multi-dig command allows you to specify any supported DNS record type, and multiple types separated by a space.
When providing DNS record types for the /multi-dig command, Discord will not prompt you with options.
Please provide a space-separated list of valid DNS record types to lookup, any invalid options will be silently dropped.
'A' records will be used as the default if no valid types are given.
Supported record types
- A
- AAAA
- CAA
- CERT
- CNAME
- DNSKEY
- DS
- LOC
- MX
- NAPTR
- NS
- PTR
- SMIMEA
- SPF
- SRV
- SSHFP
- TLSA
- TXT
- URI
Use '*' (asterisk) in place of a record type to get DNS results for all supported types.
Examples
/multi-dig domain: cloudflare.com types: A AAAA
/multi-dig domain: cloudflare.com types: DNSKEY short: True
whois command
The /whois command allows you to perform an RDAP/WHOIS lookup right in Discord to find who is behind a given domain name, an IP address, or an ASN.
Examples
/whois query: cloudflare.com
/whois query: 104.16.132.229
/whois query: 2606:4700::6810:84e5
/whois query: 13335
